I would like to post 4 Sleepyhead mask comparisons. I know how to take screenshots. I have the 4 charts in a pdf document. Do I need to load to imgur and post a url? Or is there a different product that is recommended now?
Thank you.

Update on lip stuck issue- I was able to get a chin strap to see if that would prevent as much mouth opening and possibly reduce her lip getting stuck but she couldn't get used to it. My mom is partially paralyzed and has aphasia (difficulty communicating) from a stroke so I think it made her feel m...

Has anyone seen both the F20 and the F20 for Her? According to the ResMed product guide on their website, the Frame system includes the cushion, frame and elbow. It indicates 3 different p/ns for the F20 (Small, Med, Large) and 2 different p/ns for the For Her (small, Med). There are 5 additional p/...

Has anyone experience your lip from getting stuck in bottom of full face mask (F10, F20) during the night? My mom has been using the AirFit F10 for Her somewhat successfully for awhile. She added the Remzzz liner after I read about it in forum It was a turning point in use since it eliminated the tr...

FYI- I made the changes above and got the desired result- constant EPAP at 6 and IPAP at 10.
My mom slept almost 10 hr. without mask noise and needing adjustment. However, her AHI was still in the teens.

My mom's dr. contacted DME too late in the day to make changes tonight. So, I think I am going to make them at the risk of the DME reprimanding me. Maybe I will change them back in the AM. I need to make the unit stay at a constant IPAP and EPAP [/i] . Right now, it auto-adjusts within a range. (It ...

Looking for some reassurance from those who have been there.....I finally spoke to dr. about sleep lab titration. (I still don't have report to post yet). Her recommendation is completely different than what we have been discussing in this forum based on her daily reports. I am in disbelief but tryi...

Pressure max in setup is set at 18. According to PPT, when there is decreased flow, PS is increased first. If obstruction, increase is blocked so flow is not corrected so EPAP increases pressure. If the IPAP is at 18 (max) and/or PS is at max of 12 during the night, and then there is decreased flow ...

Thanks, Pugsy. Still waiting on the dr. An odd thing that wasn't clear in the Powerpoint- As you know, her IPAP max. is set at 18. However, I have seen it go beyond 18. I've seen 21, 23 multiple times. It is louder and usually wakes me and, sometimes, my mom. At first, I thought I was just too tired...

In addition to above question about the 3 IPAP lines in the Pressure Graph, I was reading some posts about events scored when awake. I know when asleep the goal is flow pattern that is repeated/consistent. I think it is a sleep pattern around 34:30 and 35 in this zoomed in view. Does it show my mom ...

Great link, Pugsy. What are the 3 IPAP lines that show in the Sleepyhead pressure graph? Min IPAP, IPAP and Max IPAP. They don't move in the same direction as the EPAP line so I don't think they are EPAP + PSmin or max.
Thank you.

I will definitely read the link when I can focus more. Thank you. Yes, I plan to get the drs. recommendation and will also ask about what you mentioned. I am afraid dr. is only looking at sleep study. I just left message asking if she can look at some daily data as well. Sleep study tech told me she...

Pugsy, Thanks for looking at the data. How does a higher Minimum EPAP help? In the two datasets, I posted the 95% percentile EPAP was 11.8, and 11.1 and max of 12 was not reached. Her medians were 9 and 7. Also, from a monthly compliance report, 90% of time EPAP was 10.3. Are you saying the machine ...

My first attempt at posting a screenshot from Imgur. I don't see an option to choose thumbnail. This shows a typical night where my mom either wakes up and wants mask off, or we both wake up because we hear the high pressure or some mask noise after about 2 hrs. This is with Amara View FFM. Some nig...

I take care of my mother who has severe OSA and CSA. We have been struggling with CPAP, then Bi-PAP for a year. We worked through many issues (lip getting stuck, constant noises, leaks). There were nights when she wore the F10 mask for 8-10 hrs but most nights were about 6 hrs with adjustment during...
